I just got my first box turtle, a little boy, and bought dry and canned food at our reptile shop, and he loves to eat it and berries, tomatoes and my dogs dry food. He lets me rub his head and doesn't hide anymore, the dog loves to watch him run around and barks if he digs under the dirt outside, it is so cute! He takes a daily soak in the sink and sleeps in a indoor box, just not sure what to do come winter, the reptile man says to put him outside with a bale of loose hay, but I am worried, it gets really cold here in Oklahoma. Anyone have one here, and what do you do in winter besides bring him inside? ... View related article.
